Dear

r Guterres

I am deepl - sorry to learn of your trouble, and the

various accusations that have been brought against you.

During the six years, I have been discharging crews

before you, I have never seen anything at all of this nature

and personally don't see how it could possibly take place, when

I used to pay orr in your Office, during the old regime of the

China Mutual, I have alwa ̈s personally brought the exact amount

required with sufficient change to carry through the work and

as this was always in full view, and the balance nil, when the

work was finished, unless by slight or and I fail to see how

deductions could be made. At present, taking place as it does on

board ship, it is an imposibility for sucha thing to occur.

Regarding being in league with Poarding lasters ?c

I have heard the frequent rows taking place cutside, between thesa

fantry and the man paid off, and can testify to seeing you on

rore then one occasion turning ther out, when hey came in to

appeal to you.

1 sincerely trust this testimony may be of some value

to you and that we Masters, may long have your valuable assistanc

to aid us with our work with Chinese Crews.
